Caveat, I am not a Linux person, but have watched SunOS and FreeBSD booting way too many times. My impression on reading this is that the entries in /etc/fstab don't match the devices assigned between the BIOS and kernel. It looks to me like you are getting through the boot loader and the kernel has enumerated the devices, so you must be reading a drive (assuming I didn't lose track and you were net booting). And it just seems like the right time in the boot process that /etc/fstab has just come into play. -Jed _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
